PROPER DISPOSAL (OF OLD REFRIGERATION UNIT)
DANGER
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigeration Unit:
• Take off the doors.
• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily
climb inside.
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past.
Junked or abandoned refrigeration units are still dangerous... even if they will
sit for “just a few days.”
IMPORTANT:
Now that you have a new ice machine, it is extremely important that you dispose
of your old appliance in a way that minimizes the possibility that children will
find it. There have been many cases in years past of children crawling inside
junked and abandoned refrigeration units and becoming trapped or suffocated.
Contact your municipal waste disposal authority to find out the best and safest
way to dispose of your old refrigeration unit.
